You start your cycle tour down the Moselle to Oberbillig. There you take a ferry (not included) to Wasserbillig. From now on, the Sûre guides your cycle tour. The marvellous natural landscape along the German-Luxembourg border will inspire you. Echternach is the oldest town in Luxembourg. A medieval fortification wall, the basilica and a historic market square invite you to linger. Finally, you follow the Prüm for the last stretch until you reach today's stage destination in Irrel.

Pretty wine villages line your route to the medieval town of Saarburg with its castle ruins perched high above the riverbed.

Today you cycle the first section again in the enchanting Saar valley. At Mettlach you reach the Saar bend. The landscape is certainly one of the highlights of your tour. The most popular view is 180 metres above the river and is well worth the climb. Plan some time for a visit to the Villeroy and Boch experience centre. You leave the Saar at Merzig.
